Just ran around the woods this weekend with a Magpul MS4 dual QD sling and had absolutely no issues, I was using all the QD mounts on the left side of the gun (right hand shooter) to get a feel for how I want to carry it, so switched them in and out and often, no issues

Also my VHS-2 is a first import model 16”, old safety, etc

I have had trouble with other rifles/forends/stocks (some big name and others not) and would try different QD swivels.  QD seems to mean it will QD on you when you don't want it to - the second time my 6920 ended up in a ditch I looped the rear of the sling into the stock slot and threw the QD swivel into a field of beans.  

It may have been the various manufacturers of swivels or the cups?  I gave up.
I just use the sling slots on stocks and the Magpul MLok swivel for forends that have MLok  or Blue Force Gear fixed loop for pic rail.

Ok, so that's why some QD sockets actually fit the KeyMod slots.

Sorry for the late reply, forgot to check in here.
I can get pictures in a bit, but you just use JB weld and with a toothpick, fill the groove in a cross pattern.
The idea, again, is to prevent the ball bearings of the swivel itself from being able to continue past the epoxy. Note: check your swivel and be sure that you're epoxying in places that the ball bearings won't be resting when slung.

Try to fill the groove in 4 places, but don't made it too wide. Also use the toothpick to sweep the inside afterwards so that it isn't poking up too high.

I haven't really heard of any issues with these. They are pretty well vetted. As for your friend, I'm not really sure what someone would be bringing it into a shop for when if there was an actual problem, you would send it to the manufacturer. Maybe he's talking about custom work or something?

That picture was a 20” barrel.  I had an accupoint 1-4 on it.  I’m going to get something like 2.5-10 and make this my dmr.

I put an optic on my 16” and got similar accuracy results.

They are impressive rifles…I was hesitant, but have been won over.

I’m curious to hear what is breaking on them…I did a lot of scouring of the net and couldn’t come up with much for known issues with the design.

They break is kinda a blanket statement.  Be interesting to ask what breaks.Wonder if the customers are taking them apart and not reassembling them correctly but they are pretty simple.

Thanks!

A DMR setup is something I haven't considered but makes sense.
I have the 16" version and just now getting around to shooting it but am interested in possibly using it in that roll.

I watched an expert, at a LGS, try to pull the sights/carry handle/rail off before removing the bolt carrier.  I thought he was going to break the charging handle, but somehow he did not.
If it was anyone other than this jack wagon, I would have said something.

I'd assume all of the 18" and 20" guns will have the newer version.  For the 16", you may have some luck if it was a smaller retailer that has it in stock and can check vs one of the many drop-shippers.

For those who don’t like the LOP or awkward selector on the VHS, a standard A1 or A2 pistol grip is a bigger improvement than you would think over the OEM grip. The greater sweep back helps a good bit with both, at least for me.

I wound up not liking the A1/A2 grip on the VHS-2 because of the increased angle, and reduced trigger reach. I instead wanted a grip that has a more vertical angle, but also a backstrap that increases trigger reach without lowering the hand.

In this case, the Tango Down BG18 was pretty much the perfect grip, and not only kept the trigger reach workable, but also provided better access to the safety.

I bought an 11" MCX and hellion around the same time and I'm in the same boat. Both great guns but close call.

At the very least the hellion doesn't gas me out every time I shoot it suppressed like the MCX does.

That's a good point. I don't have a lot of rounds through mine (it sat in the closet for months as I debated selling it) but all the rounds I have shot have been suppressed and your right, I don't seem to recall as much gas.

There is literally nothing your friends shop can do to “fix” issues on these at the moment. If there are any issues … it goes to the mothership … No issues here.

It is one of the most vetted modern bullpup available right now …

Interesting how many of us have both the MCX and a Hellion.



I like my MCX shooting 5.56, but I love it shooting 300blk.  Basically the only time I swap it over to 5.56 is for a class or competition to save on ammo.  Other than that this is my current favorite set up for it: 6.75” 300blk barrel, CGS Hyperion under a 12” SD rail.

Hellion is much newer to me, but liking it so far.  Good suppressor host, etc.  Would love to use it for a run and gun and really shake it out.  

I should probably also rattle can it.

The B&T grip feels and looks really good on the Hellion. Looks similar to the original VHS2 grip.

Good luck finding one though, except on the secondary market.


Also attached an aluminum pic rail to the bottom of mine like the original VHS2, and put on a 'AC-Unity, Forward Grip for Picatinny, Type 2' from Robert RTG.

I picked one of these up locally for $1540 unfired. I was torn between the X95 and the VHS but for that price I’ll start here.

I think the first course of action is the replace the stupid BCM grip with a MIAD or other rearward-swept grip. I’ve got big hands so the safety lever fits me fine. This thing will take a little getting used to but it’s not as bad as people love to complain about.

After selling off my POS Fs2000 years ago I swore off bullpups but I’ve been sucked back in…

I have a MIAD with the large backstrap on mine.  It works very well for my xl-xxl hands.

Put another 300 rnds through it over the weekend with a Wolfman hanging off the front.  It shoots super smooth and balances very well suppressed.

Traditional guns (especially bolt and lever guns) have the trigger and the rear of the optic rail or sights in direct relation to each other.  As you can see the rear of the bullpup's rail/sights sits considerably further back than the trigger.

For me, that's why the long LOP is a non-issue.   LOP doesn't have the same consequences on a bullpup as it does on a traditional gun.  A half dozen people of all shapes and sizes have shot my VHS-2.
Nobody said anything about the LOP, only the "strange" location of the magazine and the safety being different than an AR.

 Until the adoption of peep sights, the most common long gun sight was an open U notch forward of the chamber.

Length of Pull refers to the difference from the butt of the gun to the trigger, and I'm not familiar w/ a bullpup that has a traditional LOP, other than the semi-bullpups like the Uzi & FG-42.  I was looking for some comparison pics of some other bullpups - does the PS-90 have a shorter LOP than some others?  Seems like the KelTec RDB might have a relatively short LOP as well.

Yes, the sights are properly positioned, but the dominant arm loses some support leverage b/c it's extended out so far.  Not a criticism of the VHS, just a curiosity of bullpups in general.
